Five names.
A lot of miles.

Jimmy has played the Berks music scene for 55 years, beginning at age 12. He was taught by his uncle, local legend Louie Jordan of the Jordan Brothers.

He has played in over 20 bands, and retired from regular performing in 2022. After two years off, the itch needed scratching again, and RoadWorn was born.

Mike performed back in the '80s, playing mostly Schuylkill County venues with Just Us and High Voltage, who also performed original material.

Mike and Jon played ice hockey together in the '70s and are long-time friends, but never played music together until RoadWorn.

Lynn is a long-time hard rocker, performing since 1967 in various bands including The Beginning and Heaven and Earth. After serving our country for two years in the US Army, Lynn performed with Onyx and Aura.

Aura was very accomplished and provided a highlight for Lynn: they opened for Iron Butterfly, famous for their hit "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida." The band was also scheduled to open for The Guess Who, but the show got snowed out, and for Steppenwolf, but that show was cancelled after the band trashed the local hotel and got arrested.

George, better known as Georgie and the "kid" of the band, first started performing in high school as a guitar player with Bad Apple and won the Conrad Weiser Talent Show. He later joined the band Rigid, writing and performing original music.

In Throttle 5, George switched to bass guitar. He later joined Jimmy in Camel Toe, then reunited with former Rigid members to form Chasing Hates, an original metal band.

Jon performed on the State College music scene as a college student in the late '70s and early '80s, appearing in Stripped Gears, Ricochet and Conspiracy. Ricochet wrote original material and performed at the prestigious Movin' On outdoor festival and the HUB ballroom at Penn State. Conspiracy had a regular rotation in the State College bar scene as the only hard rock band: Mondays at the Phryst, Wednesdays at the Brewery, and weekends at venues including the famous Scorpion bar and the Briarwood Bash, where they headlined a 100-keg party with a raucous Saturday night show.

Later Jon joined the Dan Yody Band with guitarist Dave Mell. The band focused on original material, recorded a mini album, and performed around Eastern PA, playing clubs in Philly and in Berks, including Rasputin's, Blue Marsh Inn and Hugo's.

Jon took an extended break from live performing in the late '80s to focus on his family and career, and didn't perform in a band again until RoadWorn came calling.
